Liverpool v Reading- Match Thread

[desertscouser]

FLMAO at Momo's ridiculous f**k up of a pass. Absolutely appalling. He's a car crashf a footballer and always will be.

I know Voronin has got his fans on here but he's been truly dreadful this afternoon. Give me Kuyt over him any day.

The league is not lost.

Of course its not but it hasn't fecking improved after today has it? As I said Rafa has messed around with our chances. And what for? To appease our American owners? It's a shambles and there is no way to put any positive spin on it.

Voronin trying to make something happen, spreads it wide to Arbeloa who gets a corner.

Riise ball in, awful, comes back out, next ball isn't much better.

Playing him as RM is just ****ing stupid though.

[Shanks]

Er..

And by that you are blaming Hobbs for this defeat..

[Rhys]

theres no urgency at all.

Kuyt damned with faint praise there.

Momo holds off half the Reading team then his ball is straight to a Reading shirt.

Respect for carrying on with the updates bigfooty.
I smashed the radio against the wall after that third goal.

No, Voronin on the right of midfield. Momo on the pitch. A few individual poor performances and one unfair pen decision lost us the game.

[bigfooty]

Reading get a corner, we are all over the place.

I think he's been given some hints that the CL game could decide his fate. If not that then definitely his transfer budget...

It's certainly a "Rafa" thing to do, gamble on this game with a patchy side to prevent losing money in January which could eventually make the difference.

Sami on to avoid Jamie getting a possible booking and missing the manc's

That's definitely one theory. The other would be that he wants to save Carra for Tuesday night as we're vying for the more important trophy (in Rafa's eyes).

[bigfooty]

Crouch drills a shot against the post and back to the keeper. Good effort.

It means we must beat ManU to stay in the title race. Looks like Rafa never cared about this game. To be honest our back up players are rubbish. Sissoko, Voronin and Riise are clearly not good enough. Hobbs is too inexperienced. Crouch has been very poor. He is an impact sub at best and has proved that. We certainly need another striker. There is no way we can rely on Voronin, Kuyt, Crouch to provide goals. This is as poor a Liverpool performance as I've seen in a long time. I think we've put ourselves in a difficult position in the league now since we have the tougher run in. We are lucky that Carra didnt pick up a yellow. Not our day
